The result of a spontaneous trip to the Addo Elephant Park this morning was nothing less than elephants.
Elephant cow and calf also heading down for a drink. The Addo elephant cows are unique, in that they do not have tusks.
A time for reflection.

I really like the last pic. If I could I would do spontaneous trips to Addo very often. Its such a super place.
These are fabulous. I can't wait to show these to my mother. She love elephants. She's 80 and doesn't even get out to the zoo anymore, so she will love seeing these.
Catching up - - scrolled down a bit further than this post even -- and all of your pictures are as always amazing.
This post makes tears come to my eyes though. There's just something about elephants. The mother and baby -- and the reflection one especially are heart-rending. Thanks for sharing. I can't imagine how wonderful it must be to live where these are almost everyday sights.
You are so lucky to be able to experience sights like these. Beautiful captures, love the reflection.
Oh and I love the little calf - he's so adorable, wish I could give him a hug!
